Atlanta Perl Mongers

New location: 2008-04-24

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 02:43:10 EDT

We have a new meeting place! We will be meeting at the Cox Enterprises corporate office just outside the perimeter (almost due west of Perimeter Mall). This is a secure facility! Expect to be required to show government issued identification (with a photograph). We need to submit a list of attendees to Cox security. PLEASE let Stephen Cristol know if you will be attending by April 23. We expect that we can admit people not on the list, but this WILL disrupt the meeting. Please RSVP if you are thinking about attending.

We currently have two talks scheduled.

Do you want to do a micro-talk for this meeting? Currently, there are slots open for micro-talks.

Guidelines for preparing a micro-talk: Plan to speak for about 10 minutes. Consider making a one (1) page handout so attendees have no reason to take notes.

Meeting: 2008-03-27

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 20:51:47 EDT

We may get a new meeting place shortly. We won't make changes to plans past Mar 25. Please check the web site or the mailing list on Mar 26 to verify the location.

Currently, we plan to meet at the Cheesecake Factory on March 27 (Thursday) at 7:30p. Because it is a restaurant, it is helpful if you post on the mailing list or let Stephen know if you are planning to attend.

Are you willing to do a micro-talk for this meeting? Currently, there are no micro-talks promised. I'd like to have at least two people volunteer to give micro-talks on March 27 (see guidelines below). The micro-talks will be given at the meeting regardless of location. (If we have a new location this month, Bruce Gray will give a full talk on Perl Debugging.) If you have questions or want to volunteer to give a micro-talk, email Stephen.

Now meeting on 4th Thursdays

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 01:03:39 EST

Starting in February, Atlanta Perl Mongers will switch to meeting on the fourth Thursday of the month. The next meeting will be 28 February 2008 (NOT 24 January 2008).

Meeting: 2008-02-28

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 01:08:04 EST

This will be another "social" meeting in the sense that it is at a restaurant and we can't do big formal presentations with a slide projector. We can do micro-talks; these were introduced at the November meeting and worked well. Come for some cheesecake, stay for the Perl. Bring Perl questions and ideas for a new meeting site. We will meet at the Cheesecake Factory at 7:30p. As always, it is helpful if you post on the mailing list or let Stephen know if you are planning to attend.
